Judges Hearing Arguments on Obama Law Appointed by Democrats

All three judges that will hear Tuesday's arguments on the constitutionality of President Obama's health care law were appointed by Democratic presidents, including two by Obama himself.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit made the announcement shortly before the trial started, even though the case has been scheduled for months. Judges Diana Motz, the senior member of the panel, was appointed to the bench by President Bill Clinton in 1994. Andre Davis and James Wynn were appointed by Obama.

Arizona Appeals to Supreme Court on Immigration Law

PHOENIX -- Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer announced Monday she will ask the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn a ruling that put the most controversial parts of the state's immigration enforcement law on hold.The law was passed in April 2010 amid years of complaints that the federal government hasn't done enough to lessen the state's role as the nation's busiest illegal entry point. Its passage inspired protests and led to lawsuits seeking to overturn the law and a debate about whether the law would lead to racial profiling.

Ariz. Sheriff: Feds Order Release of Illegals

The U.S. Border Patrol has told its agents to stop arresting illegal aliens crossing the border from Mexico to keep the illegal immigration numbers down, Arizona Sheriff Larry Dever tells Newsmax.

He also charges that Attorney General Eric Holder is “holding hands with the ACLU” to protect illegal aliens from prosecution, says illegals are committing “heinous crimes” across America every day, and calls claims that the federal government should be solely responsible for controlling illegal immigration “balderdash.”

Dever is sheriff of Cochise County, which shares an 83-mile border with Mexico, and he says his Border Patrol sector is responsible for half of all illegal aliens caught trying to enter the country and halt the narcotics entering the United States.

Citizens Oppose Preferential Tuition Rates for Illegal Aliens

58,000 signatures needed to get issue on 2012 ballot

Marylanders, frustrated with a bill granting in-state college tuition rates to some illegal immigrants, have launched a petition drive to send the measure to voters.

Parrott and his team set up www.mdpetitions.com, where petition supporters can print out copies and read instructions on how to collect signatures.

The goal is to get enough signatures from registered voters to put the tuition measure on the 2012 general election ballot for voters to decide. They need 18,500 signatures by the end of May and about 58,000 signatures by the end of June – the latter representing 3 percent of Maryland’s voters.

“The people of Maryland are upset this bill passed. They’re upset because they thought illegal means illegal,” said Del. Neil Parrott, R-Washington County, who is running the petition effort.http://www.usbc.org/destroying-america/immigration-news/citizens-oppose-preferential-tuition-rates-for-illegal-aliens/

Pelosi Caught Flip-Flopping Big Time on Bin Laden

Nancy Pelosi, press conference, September 7, 2006:


Even if Osama bin Laden is caught tomorrow, it is five years too late. He has done more damage the longer he has been out there. But, in fact, the damage that he has done ... is done. And even to capture him now I don't think makes us any safer.

Nancy Pelosi, earlier today (May 3, 2011)

The death of Osama bin Laden marks the most significant development in our fight against al-Qaida. ... I salute President Obama, his national security team, Director Panetta, our men and women in the intelligence community and military, and other nations who supported this effort for their leadership in achieving this major accomplishment. ... The death of Osama bin Laden is historic....

Pakistani President Denies Harboring Bin Laden Amid U.S. Skepticism

While U.S. intelligence officials worked furiously to track bin Laden, the notorious terrorist was living in a suspicious $1 million complex surrounded by a privacy wall and security gates just a short walk from a top military training center. The neighborhood where he spent his time was affluent, and filled with retired military, yet he was able to hideout there possibly for years.
